Trees, food, dogs, niche philosophy and probably swearing. Health is more than the absence of one disease. Quality of life > quantity.

Not sure why there should be celebration about a traumatised people returning to a land where there is no food/means of producing food, no safe and reliable water supply, very little shelter, no functioning health system, no schools, no universities and on and on and on...

If you think Labor is good for the environment and transparency of government, then I don't know what to tell you, other than you're wrong.

My main frustration with #TheHandmaidsTale seasons 2-6 was that the US citizens were portrayed as the heroic Christian saviours, when it was them who created Gilead in the first place. The call is coming from inside the building, guys. The original HT needed a Canadian to see that. #EyesOnGilead

One thing that has really annoyed me about recent seasons of #TheHandmaidsTale is how they’ve made June into a super Christian, presumably to appease the US audience. Atwood would never.

Withdrawal from Paris Agreement and WHO, undermining vaccines and defunding scientific research will have negative impacts on the world beyond the US. We are all entitled to be concerned about this.

Quite enjoying Black Doves but a spin off with these two would be even better.
Eleanor and Williams: one dark haired woman and one blonde woman. Both women are hilarious hired assassins and reliable scene stealers in Black Doves.

My 2024 invoices have been issued and paid, and as of last night, I don’t have any family members in hospital. Taking that as two big wins and that’ll do me for Christmas. 🎄

Just quietly, the gouging in aged care is getting up there with the gouging in NDIS. Privatising therapy, nursing, aged care and support services was a mistake.
